Your Trip to New York City, Day 2

Luna Luz 3/4 sleeve silk organza dress

Dear readers,

Yesterday I said I wished I could bring all of you to New York with me. Later I realized: you ARE here with me! I think of you EVERY moment I am searching through at all the selections and making decisions here at market! You get to re-live the experience when you shop at Renee's!!

I am soooo excited about Day 2 finds for you. But I don't have a lot of time to write; I need to get back to work and make the most of my shopping opportunity. The photos have to do the talking today. I'll be back again tomorrow with more news from New York.

With love,
Renee

Comfy USA

Comfy USA has become a favorite brand for many customers this spring. Forgiving, easy to wear, stylish, and easy care, not to mention comfy, new shipments and colors arrive every month. Modal and crinkle are the two Comfy fabrics Renee's carries for this season. Crinkled items shown to the right are the crinkle asymmetric skirt, vest and stripe kiwi cap sleeve top with the kiwi stripe scarf. Also pictured at right is the 3/4 sleeve scoop neck top in kiwi layered under the chocolate-colored tunic tank, paired with black leggings and kiwi scarf. All crinkle items are available at Renee's in violet, chocolate, coco, coco stripe, kiwi, kiwi stripe, slate, white, and black.

The gray stripe outfit and the pinstripe dress (below) are made in the modal fabric, which has a smoother hand and can be a bit dressier than the crinkle fabric. Come in soon, try on these items, and enjoy the comfort and softness Comfy USA is known for!

New Spring Arrivals at Renee's

Tired of the gray days of winter? Come in and take a look at our brightest and best new Spring arrivals! Get a head start now on adding to your new Spring wardrobe.







New! Comfy USA (pictured above and left, modeled by Paula Erickson). We think you are going to love Comfy USA, the newest line at Renee's! Rayon and poly easy care (hand wash) crinkle fabric, Comfy USA is flowy with asymmetric European styling. Available in solid and pinstripe earth tones plus black, white and charcoal with scarves to match ($20 each), this line is reasonably priced. Comfy USA is similar to "Sympli" (shown below), but less dressy. The photos do not do justice to how pretty and comfortable this new line is. Come in to see it in person, touch it, feel the fabric, and try it on!









New Spring Sympli has arrived in dusk--a smoky blue, and cargo--a cocoa color. The drape, comfortable fit, and flow of this stretchy poly/rayon/spandex fabric is appealing to everyone! All sizes will love the ease of wearing any of the Sympli items. The Spring group includes a beautiful asymmetric dress and jacket, perfect for spring or summer wedding attendance or any other semi-dressy affair. Sympli is based in Vancouver, B.C., two hours north of Everett. Teresa Wharton is modeling the cargo color.

















Nomadic Traders (pictured left and below). One group consists of cheery bright blue solid and print skirts and tops to coordinate. The other group consists of knee-length skirts in two colors: red and white, or black and white, with spring sweaters and blouses and tops to match. Lots more to come from this popular line. Nomadic Traders is based in Berkley, California.




















Two Dog Island is now in stock at Renee's in fun, bright spring colors like turquoise, spring green, coral, periwinkle, sunshine yellow, black, and white. Most people are familiar with their ever-popular half-zip sweatshirt, quilted vest, and thermal knit top, but have you seen the latest sweaters? Beautiful cotton fabric, comfortable fit, and always easy care, Two Dog carries through their "Relax... These are clothes you can live in!" theme in new 3/4 sleeve sweaters (pictured right)! Pick one up today at Renee's in light blue, white or sunshine yellow, sizes small through x-large. Two Dog Island is based in Seattle.




Finally, see three styles of knit tops by Before and Again. All cotton, these stylish tops pair well with any jeans, or under any jacket. There is a fitted cap sleeve top with a pink rose print (left); a long sleeve thermal tee with rose tattoo print (middle), and a cap sleeve gray, white and pink top with a 3-flower print (right). Add a contemporary top to your wardrobe today!



Come in soon to take a look at all of the new Spring arrivals. Marlene and I look forward to seeing you!
